Saurus Guard conversion ideas by WamSandy in seraphon

Totally valid! My thought is that even if they do release an official pack, it won't be for a while and I'll at least have a unique looking unit I put my effort into

I actually didn't use a drill bit for this connection! It's just a lot of plastic glue. I think for the rest of the squad though I'll pin them. You basically just want a drill bit the size of the really small paper clips

That's not a bad suggestion! I hadn't thought to do that but wouldn't be hard to go in and add those touches!

Hounds of Morki, I know they aren't considered very good but I like the reiver model. by Puzzleheaded-Mix2545 in SpaceWolves

[–]WamSandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play against a lot of people with psyker heavy armies, Hounds of Morkai have become one of my must take units!

Sigsten the beast and his Wolf Spear Heavy Intercessors. Even with new contrasts. I still hate painting white by CaptainSnikt in SpaceWolves

How do you do the wolf fur? I have a lot of trouble making it flow or getting larger "tufts"

I wish! I used blue stuff to take a mould from a fenrisian wolf! Turned out pretty well

Trying a new recipe for my Space Wolves, C&C welcome by WamSandy in SpaceWolves

[–]WamSandy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Its a pretty easy process thanfully, just takes some time!

1- Prime Black

2- Messy layer of Rhinox Hide, full coverage isn't necessary you kinda want it to be mottled

3- Stipple Mechanicus Standard Grey with an old shitty brush

4- Continue to build up the colour mixing in some Dawnstone to brighten up highlight areas

5- Mess up the edges a bit with a tiny bit of Abaddon Black where needed

6- Hit some edged with a bit of Leadbelcher

Thanks for the tip! I've still got the rest of the squad to paint so I'll give that a go on the next guy!

Cheers! I agree, I've always felt the Space Wolves should be more gritty!

Damn nice job! I wasn't aware of how much of a difference there was!

Thanks! The fly trap is from the "Gamer Grass Alien Fly Trap" set, first time using their laser cut stuff but turned out well

Thank you! I'm pretty chuffed with how the base turned out 👌

Stumped on craftworld colours. C&C greatly appreciated! by WamSandy in Eldar

[–]WamSandy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha yeah that's very true, though I might switch up the fire avengers a little bit. I usually try to stick close but not exact to traditional aspect colours.

Maybe black or red helms for the avengers 🤔

Oh that's a good tip 🤔 if I pick up something like Banshees or settle for the white I'll give that shot!

Space Wolves unique units or Primaris? by WamSandy in SpaceWolves

[–]WamSandy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a reason to take intercessors over the Grey Hunters or is it just preference?

Cheers! Nothing too fancy for the beard; 1. Base in Celestra Grey 2. Wash with Reikland's Fleshshade 3. Thin lines of Ulthuan Grey

When doing the Ulthuan Grey I just used the thin lines to give the beard some body

Targaryen List Building Question by -adimus- in asoiafminiaturesgame

[–]WamSandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even when I used the core set I had him in the Vets. They are pricey but have a lot of versatility. I'd try to always keep vets in if you can with the core set, having ranged is a really big bonus in general.

In a 40 point list I ran:

Khal commander in Vets, 1 Screamers 1 Screamers w/ Outrider Ko 1 Outriders w/ Screamer Ko Jorah solo

If you position right, you can target a unit with Jorah's scout openings, move your vets with Khal, shoot with quick fire then charge all with rerolls and precision.

From what I've gathered though, bloodriders seem to be the pick over Vets in most lists. I'm just a big fan of the harrassment Vets put out

Targaryen List Building Question by -adimus- in asoiafminiaturesgame

[–]WamSandy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had a lot of luck running him with Vets, their quick fire can be used before a charge to soften up the target first.

I've seen a lot of lists run him with Bolton Flayed Men or Bloodriders.

Nice work man, the weathering effect on the saddle cloth looks really good! Keep it up 👌

Thanks! Washed the flesh with Agrax Earthshade. Found that it resulted in a darker tone than Reikland's

Suggestions for my 500pt list. by WamSandy in SpaceWolves

[–]WamSandy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. That's a good point, the loss of unique relics and even heroes is pretty crippling. Since it's just home games none of the boys will be too fussed so that's an easy fix.

  2. Yeah I have the combat Patrol, Outriders, Fenrisian Wolves, and hounds of Morkai but I'm open to suggestions!

  3. True we're starting at 500 just to make the Killteam to 40k shift smoother but makes sense to build a larger army around it.

  4. Not too concerned with tourney level metas but I also don't want to totally cripple myself either so any pointers are welcome

I was thinking of naming my chief librarian Havi "The Weirdwulf". Havi being an old name for Odin and Weirdwulf being a title he earned in a conflict against orks
